Creating an awe-inspiring panorama, United States flags will fly in a solemn formation at the Sellers Funeral Home during November for 2023. This stirring display of 200 flags will bring the community together in a patriotic tribute to honor our heroes.  Each U.S. flag represents an individual and tells a story. Flags may be sponsored to honor individuals currently serving in our military, fallen servicemen & women and all veterans. This unique event is the perfect opportunity for all of us to remember and honor our many heroes.

The Stars & Stripes reminds us of who we are as a people. Americans meet the challenges of history and overcome hardships becoming stronger. That is just who we are. The United States flag represents our solidarity in creating a brighter tomorrow and uniting us all.

This moving display is a gift to the community made possible through donations, sponsorships and the efforts of many dedicated volunteers.

This is an experience hard to describe, but never to be forgotten. We invite all to visit the Rotary Club of Chambersburg® patriotic display and walk with us among the posted flags.

Schedule of Events:
Friday, November 10: Opening Ceremony
Monday, November 13 – Saturday. November 18: Flag display open to the public
Sunday, November 19: Field of flags will be disassembled

The display is open to all without charge. Don’t miss it!

Thank You
